Fans are crossing their fingers for Sam Ryder's performance at Eurovision this weekend, and he's announced a series of shows.

He's competing for the United Kingdom in the contest for 2022, with his song 'Space Man'.

Known by many for his TikTok videos, Ryder will perform across Europe in October and November.

Tickets go on sale on Friday, (13th) at 9am.

Any tickets bought for the previous dates will be honoured for the new date.

Ryder is currently one of the favourites for this year's Eurovision, behind Ukraine.

Sam said: "Having been a fan of Eurovision since I was a kid l I am so honoured to have been presented with the opportunity to sing at an event alongside some of Europe's most talented creatives, performers and songwriters.

"I hope to sing my head off in a way the UK can be proud of, and to showcase a song I wrote with my friends last summer makes the whole experience even more special. See you in Turin legends!"

Sam wrote the song along with Amy Wadge and Max Wolfgang.

Fans have loved his behind-the-scenes and interviews, and even Virgin Radio UK's very own Graham Norton says he's a "star" and "our best hope for years".

Graham said: "Sam Ryder is a star! I honestly think he is our best hope for years.

"He has been getting a great response around Europe as he promotes Spaceman, so fingers crossed for some points this year!"
